[Neck anastomosis of esophagus and retroaortically transposed reduced tubular stomach in the treatment of esophageal cancer].
One hundred and twelve esophageal cancer patients underwent esophagus resection with neck anastomosis of esophagus and reduced tubular stomach raised from the stomach bed and back of the aortic arc. Twelve (10.8%) cases developed early complications and 2 (1.8%) died. The 3 and 5 year survival rates were 48.7% (19/39) and 33.3% (3/9), respectively. The operative procedure, its advantages and points to be noted are discussed.
